Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sociological Theories in Progress demonstrates that theory building in sociology did not cease with the old masters. Indeed, there are many scholars currently building sustained theoretical programs in this field. This volume is the third in a series, the first two appearing in 1966 and 1972 respectively. Each volume has attempted to do several things: to demonstrate just how much theoretical activity there has been in sociology at a time when may people were wondering where all the Durkheims, Marxes and Webers had gone; to explore the leading edge of theoretical development; and to provide models to follow and an update on the state of sociological theory. The editors particularly wish to show the range of 'middle-range theory' - theory oriented to empirical knowledge of specific domains as opposed to overarching frameworks for all sociology. While the introduction is devoted to metatheoretical issues, many of the contributions are 'middle-range' theories presented as still in the process of construction - precisely to underline the fact that theory is an ongoing process rather than a finished product. This volume shows just how rapidly sociological theory has grown since publication of the second volume in ths series. It contains the work of some of the leading theorists in sociology, presents extensions or reformulations of existing theories and some wholly new theories. It will be indispensable reading for those in sociology, social psychology and related disciplines.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work, sequel to the author's Theories of Civil Violence, attacks questions that have long troubled social science and social scientists - questions of the cumulative nature of social inquiry. Does the knowledge generated by the study of social, political, and economic life grow more comprehensive over time? These questions go to the heart of social scientists' soul-searching as to whether they are indeed engaged in 'science'. The author pursues these questions through in-depth examination of various theoretical programs currently influential in social science, including feminist social science, rational choice theory, network analysis and others.

Download or read book Trauma written by Jeffrey C. Alexander and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-04-26 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book Jeffrey C. Alexander develops an original social theory of trauma and uses it to carry out a series of empirical investigations into social suffering around the globe. Alexander argues that traumas are not merely psychological but collective experiences, and that trauma work plays a key role in defining the origins and outcomes of critical social conflicts. He outlines a model of trauma work that relates interests of carrier groups, competing narrative identifications of victim and perpetrator, utopian and dystopian proposals for trauma resolution, the performative power of constructed events, and the distribution of organizational resources. Alexander explores these processes in richly textured case studies of cultural-trauma origins and effects, from the universalism of the Holocaust to the particularism of the Israeli right, from postcolonial battles over the Partition of India and Pakistan to the invisibility of the Rape of Nanjing in Maoist China. In a particularly controversial chapter, Alexander describes the idealizing discourse of globalization as a trauma-response to the Cold War. Contemporary societies have often been described as more concerned with the past than the future, more with tragedy than progress. In Trauma: A Social Theory, Alexander explains why.

Download or read book Theories of Industrial Society (RLE Social Theory) written by Richard Badham and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-08-21 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of industrial society plays a dominant role in the social sciences. The ‘Great Divide’ between pre-industrial and industrial societies is commonly assumed to be the main bridge separating modern societies from the past, and distinguishing ‘developed’ from ‘undeveloped’ states in the present era. In history, economics, politics and sociology the concept of industrial society underlies a wide variety of discussions, particularly those relating to economic development and social progress. Outside academic writing, too, the concept exerts a great deal of influence. In the developing world, there is a widespread concern to ‘industrialise’, whilst in the developed world there is growing uneasiness as to whether ‘industrialisation’ is beneficial or not, but still the concept is central. This book examines critically the concept of industrial society, its pervasiveness and influence. It reviews all the major theories of industrial society and the research into the changing character of post-industrial societies. It argues that the decision to use the concept severely restricts the social imagination, and that the concept becomes increasingly less useful as criticism of the equating of industrialisation with social progress grows.
